MTN FA CUP QUALIFICATION : Balloting unacceptable procedure for Picking Clubs, Ibrahim Gagbuni tells NRFA
It is no longer an option to stay silent and watch these bad activities being perpetrated by NRFA persist, setting bad precedence for our game.
We taught the 1st time was bad enough but it looks worse now.
We are serving a notice .
In any case, If we must do things the right way, we should go back to the last time the league was played in the northern region and see the teams that qualified to participate in the FA Cup by merit and not by some unscrupulous balloting.
If truly today, 19th April is the deadline for submission of qualified teams to the MTN FA cup committee, then we are clouded with information as division two.
Timing is paramount in preparing a team for this type of
tournament.
We are even at a point where the region has no representatives.
The NRFA must present the teams that qualified for 2017/2018 league season which are, Sankara nationals FC, Bindo stars, Real Republicans and Fc Tamale.
These were the teams that qualified to represent the region in the FA Cup. And so far as there have not been any league since then, those teams deserve to participate in the competition.
We are serving notice to the FA Cup committee, for this is unbecoming of FA Cup Qualifications procedures.
